Post; Do you support "wars of prevention"?


Until recently, I had no idea that the Allies had fought the Communists in limited campaign after WWI. The Allies were reluctant to support a full militay action, which doomed the campaign. Here is a web site for all those who do not know much on the subject

The debate on "wars of prevention" rages on today. I believe this is a perfect example of what happens when the world doesn't act on a small problem before it gets big. If the Allies had succeeded, there would have been no USSR.
